Is this image from C:\Program Files\VCV\Rack ?
The log file is in :
C:\Users\Yourname\Documents\Rack

8

Reinstalled it where it wanted to be, ran it, waited like a minute, still nothing. Even ran it as admin, nothing.

9

Is there a Rack.exe running in the taskmanager ?

10

Yup, 24.3 mb ram usage now, that’s it.

11

Kill it and try again, is there a rack folder in documents now ?

12

Also are you using the latest version of Rack (1.1.5)?

13

I am using the latest version, and still the same results.

14

Sorry , can’t help you any further, could be an open GL thing ? IDK , still no rack folder in documents ?

15

Awww, thanks for trying. I left it running and it’s still giving nothing, but its running at 7.9mb ram usage now lol.

16

But you are able to kill it in the taskmanager ?

17

Yeah.

18

Can you check the content of the environment variable %USERPROFILE% and post it?

20

No environment variable that says %USERPROFILE% but there is USERNAME and it says SYSTEM.

From the other values there I’d say the value of %USERPROFILE% is c:\users\tiger

Type the following at a command prompt to see the value

echo %USERPROFILE%

22

You should have

c:\Users\tiger\Documents\Rack\

and that’s where the log.txt should be

Thanks for everyone’s help! I did fix it. Windows Defender was blocking it.

I am still unable to run Rack even with Defender disabled. How do I run it in Debug mode?
